Pringle of Scotland S/S 2017
Mood board: Knitwear is a usual suspect at Pringle of Scotland, and this season full looks were de rigeur, highlighting the easy way which waffle, rib and thermal knits can be worn for every day – especially on breezy British summer days.
Scene setting: With One Marylebone, a Sir John Soane landmark church from 1826, Pringle of Scotland chose a venue that seemed to lift you up out of the city and into an oasis of calm. Highland greenery adorned the classical staircase that led to the show space.
Best in show: The simple silhouettes with a subtle twist were emblematic of Pringle of Scotland’s effortless aesthetic. The opening look, a finely knit dress in deconstructed layers and slightly off buttoning stood out for its muted yet raw elegance.
